- 00:00:28.648 --> 00:00:31.551
- - Verse 7 is what I've been
- 00:00:37.123 --> 00:00:39.159
- - Verse 7 is what I've beentrying to practice,
- 00:00:39.159 --> 00:00:40.427
- trying to practice,that I can be under attack
- 00:00:40.427 --> 00:00:42.562
- that I can be under attackand not anxious.
- 00:00:42.562 --> 00:00:43.897
- and not anxious."Cast all of your anxiety
- 00:00:43.897 --> 00:00:46.533
- "Cast all of your anxietyon Him.
- 00:00:46.533 --> 00:00:49.269
- on Him.He cares for you."
- 00:00:49.269 --> 00:00:50.170
- He cares for you."I'm trying to do that,
- 00:00:50.170 --> 00:00:52.906
- I'm trying to do that,because I felt like
- 00:00:52.906 --> 00:00:54.007
- because I felt likeafter Code Orange Revival,
- 00:00:54.007 --> 00:00:54.808
- after Code Orange Revival,I felt like I went under
- 00:00:54.808 --> 00:00:55.909
- I felt like I went underan emotional attack,
- 00:00:55.909 --> 00:00:56.576
- an emotional attack,and I don't even know
- 00:00:56.576 --> 00:00:59.846
- and I don't even knowthat I'm still out of it yet.
- 00:00:59.846 --> 00:01:00.713
- that I'm still out of it yet.Part of it is probably
- 00:01:00.713 --> 00:01:01.781
- Part of it is probablybecause of adrenaline
- 00:01:01.781 --> 00:01:03.116
- that have to do with getting up
- 00:01:04.084 --> 00:01:05.552
- that have to do with getting upten nights in a row,
- 00:01:05.552 --> 00:01:07.053
- ten nights in a row,and all of the hosting,
- 00:01:07.053 --> 00:01:08.021
- and all of the hosting,of trying to put up with guests
- 00:01:08.021 --> 00:01:08.655
- of trying to put up with guestsfor ten nights
- 00:01:08.655 --> 00:01:10.156
- for ten nightsand making them feel special.
- 00:01:10.156 --> 00:01:15.028
- and making them feel special.[Laughter]
- 00:01:15.028 --> 00:01:15.795
- [Laughter]Part of it though
- 00:01:15.795 --> 00:01:17.097
- Part of it thoughhad to be spiritual,
- 00:01:17.097 --> 00:01:20.667
- had to be spiritual,and it was like,
- 00:01:20.667 --> 00:01:21.334
- and it was like,for ten nights,
- 00:01:21.334 --> 00:01:21.835
- in our church,
- 00:01:22.769 --> 00:01:23.470
- in our church,you know, you basically
- 00:01:23.470 --> 00:01:24.270
- you know, you basicallymissed out on life
- 00:01:24.270 --> 00:01:25.371
- missed out on lifeby not coming
- 00:01:25.371 --> 00:01:29.909
- by not comingto Code Orange Revival.
- 00:01:29.909 --> 00:01:30.877
- to Code Orange Revival.But, not only did our city
- 00:01:30.877 --> 00:01:31.644
- But, not only did our citygo through a shaking
- 00:01:31.644 --> 00:01:32.679
- go through a shakingafter the Revival,
- 00:01:32.679 --> 00:01:33.680
- after the Revival,I went through a shaking,
- 00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:34.747
- I went through a shaking,and I don't want to get up here
- 00:01:34.747 --> 00:01:35.148

- and use youfor a counseling appointment,
- 00:01:35.949 --> 00:01:36.549
- for a counseling appointment,because I don't want
- 00:01:36.549 --> 00:01:37.951
- because I don't wantto have to pay your hourly fee
- 00:01:37.951 --> 00:01:40.053
- to have to pay your hourly feeor anything like that.
- 00:01:40.053 --> 00:01:40.720

- And I don't want youto worry about me,
- 00:01:41.287 --> 00:01:41.921
- to worry about me,because I promise you,
- 00:01:41.921 --> 00:01:43.690
- because I promise you,I'm good, and I love my wife
- 00:01:43.690 --> 00:01:44.457

- 00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:48.094
- we're praying for you, Pastor.That's not the reason
- 00:01:48.094 --> 00:01:48.895
- That's not the reasonI'm telling you this,
- 00:01:48.895 --> 00:01:49.696
- I'm telling you this,and it'll make me feel like
- 00:01:49.696 --> 00:01:50.196

- or anything like that.Flowers, cookies,
- 00:01:53.433 --> 00:01:54.267
- Flowers, cookies,trying to get me fat
- 00:01:54.267 --> 00:01:55.001
- trying to get me faton carbohydrates
- 00:01:55.001 --> 00:01:55.401
- on carbohydratesbecause you think
- 00:01:55.401 --> 00:01:55.902
- because you thinkI'm struggling.
- 00:01:55.902 --> 00:01:56.703
- I'm struggling.I don't want any of that.
- 00:01:56.703 --> 00:01:57.537
- I don't want any of that.I don't need any of that.
- 00:01:57.537 --> 00:01:57.937
- I don't need any of that.I just want
- 00:01:57.937 --> 00:01:59.472
- I just wantto tell you something.
- 00:01:59.472 --> 00:02:01.407
- to tell you something.While we were in here
- 00:02:01.407 --> 00:02:03.476
- While we were in heretalking about ten nights,
- 00:02:03.476 --> 00:02:04.244
- talking about ten nights,ten years,
- 00:02:04.244 --> 00:02:06.279
- ten years,celebrating ten years,
- 00:02:06.279 --> 00:02:08.481
- celebrating ten years,I felt overwhelmed about,
- 00:02:08.481 --> 00:02:09.549
- I felt overwhelmed about,do I have what it takes
- 00:02:09.549 --> 00:02:11.918
- do I have what it takesfor the next ten?
- 00:02:11.918 --> 00:02:13.119
- for the next ten?And it's like, once you've gone
- 00:02:13.119 --> 00:02:15.889
- And it's like, once you've gonereal high with God,
- 00:02:15.889 --> 00:02:17.290
- real high with God,as a leader I think you feel
- 00:02:17.290 --> 00:02:20.360
- as a leader I think you feela pressure to go higher.
- 00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:21.494
- a pressure to go higher.But then it's kind of hard,
- 00:02:21.494 --> 00:02:23.363
- But then it's kind of hard,because you feel like
- 00:02:23.363 --> 00:02:24.497
- because you feel likemaybe you've gone
- 00:02:24.497 --> 00:02:26.699
- maybe you've goneas high as you can go.
- 00:02:26.699 --> 00:02:27.233
- as high as you can go.And maybe you feel
- 00:02:27.233 --> 00:02:28.034
- And maybe you feelthat way as a parent,
- 00:02:28.034 --> 00:02:28.801
- that way as a parent,not as a preacher.
- 00:02:28.801 --> 00:02:29.502
- not as a preacher.Maybe you feel that way
- 00:02:29.502 --> 00:02:30.236
- Maybe you feel that wayin your business,
- 00:02:30.236 --> 00:02:31.304
- in your business,and I don't know
- 00:02:31.304 --> 00:02:32.172
- and I don't knowwho I'm preaching to,
- 00:02:32.172 --> 00:02:33.006
- who I'm preaching to,but I'm going to open myself
- 00:02:33.006 --> 00:02:33.806
- but I'm going to open myselfup here a little bit
- 00:02:33.806 --> 00:02:34.607
- up here a little bitfor you today,
- 00:02:34.607 --> 00:02:35.642
- for you today,if it'll be helpful,
- 00:02:35.642 --> 00:02:38.545
- if it'll be helpful,because anxiety attacked me
- 00:02:38.545 --> 00:02:39.412
- because anxiety attacked meand it hit me kind of hard.
- 00:02:39.412 --> 00:02:40.480
- and it hit me kind of hard.And I wasn't staying in the bed
- 00:02:40.480 --> 00:02:41.881
- And I wasn't staying in the bedor anything like that, but --
- 00:02:41.881 --> 00:02:43.349
- or anything like that, but --I didn't go get addicted
- 00:02:43.349 --> 00:02:44.117
- I didn't go get addictedto something,
- 00:02:44.117 --> 00:02:45.018
- to something,some kind of pills
- 00:02:45.018 --> 00:02:45.885
- some kind of pillsor anything like that.
- 00:02:45.885 --> 00:02:48.721
- or anything like that.But it was a thing in my mind.
- 00:02:48.721 --> 00:02:50.056
- But it was a thing in my mind.You don't have what it takes.
- 00:02:50.056 --> 00:02:51.391
- You don't have what it takes.I don't have what it takes.
- 00:02:51.391 --> 00:02:53.793
- I don't have what it takes.You know, that's as far as
- 00:02:53.793 --> 00:02:54.394
- You know, that's as far asI can take them.
- 00:02:54.394 --> 00:02:55.528
- I can take them.I don't know if I'm the one
- 00:02:55.528 --> 00:02:56.396
- I don't know if I'm the oneto do it,
- 00:02:56.396 --> 00:02:57.297
- to do it,and all of this stuff
- 00:02:57.297 --> 00:02:59.799
- and all of this stuffthat was going through my mind.
- 00:02:59.799 --> 00:03:00.700
- that was going through my mind.That's how I got over
- 00:03:00.700 --> 00:03:02.101
- That's how I got overto 1 Peter 5,
- 00:03:02.101 --> 00:03:03.203
- to 1 Peter 5,because I know that Scripture,
- 00:03:03.203 --> 00:03:04.938
- because I know that Scripture,I love that Scripture.
- 00:03:04.938 --> 00:03:05.305
- I love that Scripture.That Scripture
- 00:03:05.305 --> 00:03:06.005
- That Scripturehas helped me before,
- 00:03:06.005 --> 00:03:07.507
- has helped me before,and sometimes when you are up
- 00:03:07.507 --> 00:03:08.141
- and sometimes when you are upagainst a fight,
- 00:03:08.141 --> 00:03:08.741
- against a fight,you've got to go back
- 00:03:08.741 --> 00:03:10.143
- you've got to go backto a weapon that you know.
- 00:03:10.143 --> 00:03:11.010
- to a weapon that you know.I can't fight Goliath
- 00:03:11.010 --> 00:03:11.678
- I can't fight Goliathin this armor.
- 00:03:11.678 --> 00:03:12.812
- in this armor.I've got to get a slingshot.
- 00:03:12.812 --> 00:03:14.781
- I've got to get a slingshot.So, it was kind of like
- 00:03:14.781 --> 00:03:16.082
- So, it was kind of likejust a well-known verse,
- 00:03:16.082 --> 00:03:16.916
- just a well-known verse,and I went back in there
- 00:03:16.916 --> 00:03:18.384
- and I went back in thereand considered
- 00:03:18.384 --> 00:03:20.653
- and consideredthe context of Peter,
- 00:03:20.653 --> 00:03:21.221
- the context of Peter,who fell asleep
- 00:03:21.221 --> 00:03:23.323
- who fell asleepin the Garden of Gethsemane,
- 00:03:23.323 --> 00:03:24.090
- in the Garden of Gethsemane,while he was supposed to be
- 00:03:24.090 --> 00:03:26.459
- while he was supposed to bewatching Jesus' back.
- 00:03:26.459 --> 00:03:27.460
- watching Jesus' back.And Jesus came over to him,
- 00:03:27.460 --> 00:03:29.295
- And Jesus came over to him,gave him two wake up calls.
- 00:03:29.295 --> 00:03:30.263
- gave him two wake up calls.He hit the snooze button
- 00:03:30.263 --> 00:03:32.131
- He hit the snooze buttonthree times.
- 00:03:32.131 --> 00:03:34.567
- three times.Are you still sleeping?
- 00:03:34.567 --> 00:03:35.568
- Are you still sleeping?And I looked at how Peter
- 00:03:35.568 --> 00:03:36.502
- And I looked at how Peterwas telling the church
- 00:03:36.502 --> 00:03:38.404
- was telling the churchto be alert,
- 00:03:38.404 --> 00:03:39.305
- to be alert,which is translated elsewhere
- 00:03:39.305 --> 00:03:39.939
- which is translated elsewherein the New Testament,
- 00:03:39.939 --> 00:03:42.508
- in the New Testament,be prayerful.
- 00:03:42.508 --> 00:03:44.110
- be prayerful.The enemy eats Christians
- 00:03:44.110 --> 00:03:48.214
- The enemy eats Christianswho sleep in times of battle.
- 00:03:48.214 --> 00:03:49.549
- who sleep in times of battle.Be alert to what's going on.
- 00:03:49.549 --> 00:03:51.551
- Be alert to what's going on.Realize that the birthmark
- 00:03:51.551 --> 00:03:53.820
- Realize that the birthmarkof a believer is a bull's eye,
- 00:03:53.820 --> 00:03:54.387
- of a believer is a bull's eye,that the devil
- 00:03:54.387 --> 00:03:55.822
- that the devildoesn't like it one bit,
- 00:03:55.822 --> 00:03:56.656
- doesn't like it one bit,that you're moving forward
- 00:03:56.656 --> 00:04:00.260
- that you're moving forwardin your relationship with God.
- 00:04:00.260 --> 00:04:00.827
- in your relationship with God.I started taking
- 00:04:00.827 --> 00:04:01.828
- I started takingthe verse apart,
- 00:04:01.828 --> 00:04:03.162
- the verse apart,because the Word of God
- 00:04:03.162 --> 00:04:04.631
- because the Word of Godreally is what I live by,
- 00:04:04.631 --> 00:04:05.298
- really is what I live by,not just what I make
- 00:04:05.298 --> 00:04:08.434
- not just what I makemy living off of.
- 00:04:08.434 --> 00:04:09.168
- my living off of.So, I went into verse 7
- 00:04:09.168 --> 00:04:10.169
- So, I went into verse 7real hard, like I needed
- 00:04:10.169 --> 00:04:13.106
- real hard, like I neededan answer.
- 00:04:13.106 --> 00:04:13.740
- an answer.When anxiety attacks,
- 00:04:13.740 --> 00:04:17.543
- When anxiety attacks,it'll drive you to seek God,
- 00:04:17.543 --> 00:04:19.812
- it'll drive you to seek God,to seek His hand.
- 00:04:19.812 --> 00:04:20.880
- to seek His hand.And I was looking for Him,
- 00:04:20.880 --> 00:04:21.481
- And I was looking for Him,because He said,
- 00:04:21.481 --> 00:04:23.316
- because He said,"Cast all of your anxiety".
- 00:04:23.316 --> 00:04:24.851
- "Cast all of your anxiety".While I was reading it,
- 00:04:24.851 --> 00:04:26.386
- While I was reading it,since I knew Peter wrote it
- 00:04:26.386 --> 00:04:27.153
- since I knew Peter wrote itand he's a fisherman,
- 00:04:27.153 --> 00:04:28.254
- and he's a fisherman,I wondered was he picturing,
- 00:04:28.254 --> 00:04:30.623
- I wondered was he picturing,like casting the nets
- 00:04:30.623 --> 00:04:31.524
- like casting the netsfrom one side of the boat
- 00:04:31.524 --> 00:04:32.225
- from one side of the boatto the other,
- 00:04:32.225 --> 00:04:32.992
- to the other,just because Jesus
- 00:04:32.992 --> 00:04:34.794
- just because Jesustold him to?
- 00:04:34.794 --> 00:04:36.596
- told him to?Sometimes anxiety in our life
- 00:04:36.596 --> 00:04:38.064
- Sometimes anxiety in our lifeis a result of our unwillingness
- 00:04:38.064 --> 00:04:40.133
- is a result of our unwillingnessto be obedient.
- 00:04:40.133 --> 00:04:41.434
- to be obedient.And when he cast the net
- 00:04:41.434 --> 00:04:43.469
- And when he cast the netto the other side,
- 00:04:43.469 --> 00:04:44.137
- to the other side,maybe that's a word
- 00:04:44.137 --> 00:04:44.937
- maybe that's a wordfor somebody.
- 00:04:44.937 --> 00:04:46.205
- for somebody.He said, "Cast all of your
- 00:04:46.205 --> 00:04:48.074
- He said, "Cast all of youranxiety on Him".
- 00:04:48.074 --> 00:04:49.942
- anxiety on Him".Do it His way now.
- 00:04:49.942 --> 00:04:50.943
- Do it His way now."We fished all night
- 00:04:50.943 --> 00:04:51.911
- "We fished all nightand caught nothing,"
- 00:04:51.911 --> 00:04:52.845
- and caught nothing,"Peter said,
- 00:04:52.845 --> 00:04:54.213
- Peter said,"but because you say so,
- 00:04:54.213 --> 00:04:55.615
- "but because you say so,I'm going to cast my net
- 00:04:55.615 --> 00:04:57.050
- I'm going to cast my neton the other side."
- 00:04:57.050 --> 00:04:57.583
- on the other side."I've been trying
- 00:04:57.583 --> 00:04:59.052
- I've been tryingto do this my way.
- 00:04:59.052 --> 00:05:00.019
- to do this my way.I've been trying
- 00:05:00.019 --> 00:05:01.521
- I've been tryingto handle it on my own.
- 00:05:01.521 --> 00:05:02.955
- to handle it on my own.But I'm going to cast my net
- 00:05:02.955 --> 00:05:06.826
- But I'm going to cast my neton the other side.
- 00:05:06.826 --> 00:05:08.728
- on the other side.However, it was in verse 5 and 6
- 00:05:08.728 --> 00:05:12.532
- However, it was in verse 5 and 6that I found my answer.
- 00:05:12.532 --> 00:05:13.933
- that I found my answer.For in verse 5, he says,
- 00:05:13.933 --> 00:05:15.335
- For in verse 5, he says,"In the same way,
- 00:05:15.335 --> 00:05:16.102
- "In the same way,you who are younger,
- 00:05:16.102 --> 00:05:17.036
- you who are younger,submit yourselves
- 00:05:17.036 --> 00:05:17.503
- submit yourselvesto your elders,
- 00:05:17.503 --> 00:05:19.305
- to your elders,all of you clothed..."
- 00:05:19.305 --> 00:05:21.507
- all of you clothed..."Greek word, tie on.
- 00:05:21.507 --> 00:05:22.041
- Greek word, tie on.Tie on.
- 00:05:22.041 --> 00:05:22.742
- Tie on.That's not the Greek,
- 00:05:22.742 --> 00:05:23.376
- That's not the Greek,that's the translation
- 00:05:23.376 --> 00:05:24.310
- that's the translationof the Greek word.
- 00:05:24.310 --> 00:05:28.548
- of the Greek word.Tie it on, like a towel,
- 00:05:28.548 --> 00:05:31.417
- Tie it on, like a towel,like Jesus did when He took
- 00:05:31.417 --> 00:05:33.786
- like Jesus did when He tookon the role of a servant,
- 00:05:33.786 --> 00:05:34.620
- on the role of a servant,and He got a towel,
- 00:05:34.620 --> 00:05:35.388
- and He got a towel,a servant's towel,
- 00:05:35.388 --> 00:05:37.957
- a servant's towel,and He put it around His waist.
- 00:05:37.957 --> 00:05:38.958
- and He put it around His waist.And when Peter saw Him tying
- 00:05:38.958 --> 00:05:40.293
- And when Peter saw Him tyingon that towel, he said,
- 00:05:40.293 --> 00:05:42.328
- on that towel, he said,"No, you don't tie
- 00:05:42.328 --> 00:05:43.796
- "No, you don't tieon the towel, Jesus.
- 00:05:43.796 --> 00:05:45.898
- But, Jesus tied on the towel,
- 00:05:47.500 --> 00:05:48.768
- But, Jesus tied on the towel,and I wonder, as Peter
- 00:05:48.768 --> 00:05:49.435
- and I wonder, as Peteris telling them
- 00:05:49.435 --> 00:05:50.703
- is telling themto clothe themselves
- 00:05:50.703 --> 00:05:51.704
- to clothe themselvesin humility, is he having
- 00:05:51.704 --> 00:05:55.408
- in humility, is he havinga flashback of the Savior,
- 00:05:55.408 --> 00:05:56.309
- a flashback of the Savior,who laid His riches
- 00:05:56.309 --> 00:05:58.644
- who laid His richesand glory aside,
- 00:05:58.644 --> 00:05:59.979
- and glory aside,and made Himself nothing,
- 00:05:59.979 --> 00:06:00.713
- and made Himself nothing,found in the appearance
- 00:06:00.713 --> 00:06:01.647
- found in the appearanceof a sinful man
- 00:06:01.647 --> 00:06:02.648
- of a sinful manand became a servant,
- 00:06:02.648 --> 00:06:03.516
- and became a servant,humbling Himself,
- 00:06:03.516 --> 00:06:04.684
- humbling Himself,even to death on a cross,
- 00:06:04.684 --> 00:06:06.452
- and washed Peter's feet.
- 00:06:08.721 --> 00:06:09.922
- and washed Peter's feet.Peter's response, "No, Lord,
- 00:06:09.922 --> 00:06:11.357
- Peter's response, "No, Lord,you can't wash my feet".
- 00:06:11.357 --> 00:06:13.292
- you can't wash my feet".And Jesus said,
- 00:06:13.292 --> 00:06:16.262
- And Jesus said,"Peter, shut up".
- 00:06:16.262 --> 00:06:16.596
- "Peter, shut up".That's not
- 00:06:16.596 --> 00:06:17.830
- That's notthe exact conversation,
- 00:06:17.830 --> 00:06:19.699
- the exact conversation,but it's the essence of it.
- 00:06:19.699 --> 00:06:21.033
- but it's the essence of it.And He did what He came to do.
- 00:06:21.033 --> 00:06:23.102
- And He did what He came to do.This other man came
- 00:06:23.102 --> 00:06:24.904
- This other man camenot to be served, but to serve,
- 00:06:24.904 --> 00:06:25.605
- not to be served, but to serve,and to give His life
- 00:06:25.605 --> 00:06:30.209
- and to give His lifea ransom for many.
- 00:06:30.209 --> 00:06:31.577
- a ransom for many.But, maybe my biggest problem
- 00:06:31.577 --> 00:06:34.814
- But, maybe my biggest problemwas the fact that I always
- 00:06:34.814 --> 00:06:37.950
- was the fact that I alwaysthought that verse 7,
- 00:06:37.950 --> 00:06:39.419
- thought that verse 7,put it on the screen please,
- 00:06:39.419 --> 00:06:40.319

- The reasonthat you're so anxious
- 00:10:48.634 --> 00:10:49.568
- that you're so anxiousis because
- 00:10:49.568 --> 00:10:52.538
- is becauseyou've got you at the center,
- 00:10:52.538 --> 00:10:54.540
- you've got you at the center,and you can't sustain it
- 00:10:54.540 --> 00:10:57.943

- 00:15:19.138 --> 00:15:25.177
- so they won't even notice.[Applause]
- 00:15:25.177 --> 00:15:29.481
- [Applause]What if I, I, I, I, I?
- 00:15:29.481 --> 00:15:30.416
- What if I, I, I, I, I?Who better to teach us
- 00:15:30.416 --> 00:15:33.986
- Who better to teach usabout humility than Peter?
- 00:15:33.986 --> 00:15:35.921
- about humility than Peter?Huh?
- 00:15:35.921 --> 00:15:36.588
- Huh?He was sitting
- 00:15:36.588 --> 00:15:37.589
- He was sittingaround the table, having dinner
- 00:15:37.589 --> 00:15:39.658
- around the table, having dinnerwith Jesus one time.
- 00:15:39.658 --> 00:15:40.392
- with Jesus one time.Jesus said, "All of you
- 00:15:40.392 --> 00:15:41.627
- Jesus said, "All of youare going to fall away."
- 00:15:41.627 --> 00:15:42.528
- are going to fall away."Look what Peter said.
- 00:15:42.528 --> 00:15:43.395
- Look what Peter said.What's that other verse
- 00:15:43.395 --> 00:15:44.964
- What's that other verseI gave you, Mark 14?
- 00:15:44.964 --> 00:15:46.031
- I gave you, Mark 14?I think I gave that to them
- 00:15:46.031 --> 00:15:47.132
- I think I gave that to themthis morning, yeah.
- 00:15:47.132 --> 00:15:47.533
- this morning, yeah.Because the Lord
- 00:15:47.533 --> 00:15:48.200
- Because the Lordwas speaking to me.
- 00:15:48.200 --> 00:15:49.635
- was speaking to me.I preached this message
- 00:15:49.635 --> 00:15:50.536
- I preached this messagethe one time before,
- 00:15:50.536 --> 00:15:51.470
- the one time before,but the Lord was speaking to me
- 00:15:51.470 --> 00:15:52.638
- but the Lord was speaking to meabout it for this
- 00:15:52.638 --> 00:15:55.607
- about it for thisparticular group.
- 00:15:55.607 --> 00:15:56.542
- particular group.And He reminded me
- 00:15:56.542 --> 00:15:58.277
- And He reminded mewhat Peter said when Jesus said,
- 00:15:58.277 --> 00:15:59.311
- what Peter said when Jesus said,"You know, you're all going
- 00:15:59.311 --> 00:16:01.413
- Because sometimes the only way
- 00:16:02.848 --> 00:16:04.883
- Because sometimes the only wayfor you to find your foundation
- 00:16:04.883 --> 00:16:08.120
- for you to find your foundationis to hit rock bottom.
- 00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:09.588
- is to hit rock bottom.Sometimes that's the best place
- 00:16:09.588 --> 00:16:11.190
- Sometimes that's the best placeto build from.
- 00:16:11.190 --> 00:16:12.558
- to lead from.
- 00:16:13.792 --> 00:16:15.461
- to lead from.Sometimes that's the best place
- 00:16:15.461 --> 00:16:16.929
- Sometimes that's the best placeto be a better husband from,
- 00:16:16.929 --> 00:16:19.465
- to be a better husband from,is the place of,
- 00:16:19.465 --> 00:16:20.265
- is the place of,"Lord, save me."
- 00:16:20.265 --> 00:16:21.567
- "Lord, save me."Not "call me to come,
- 00:16:21.567 --> 00:16:22.301
- Not "call me to come,and I'll come,"
- 00:16:22.301 --> 00:16:23.535
- and I'll come,"but "Lord, save me,"
- 00:16:23.535 --> 00:16:24.670
- but "Lord, save me,"and then the hand of God
- 00:16:24.670 --> 00:16:27.239
- and then the hand of Godgets involved.
- 00:16:27.239 --> 00:16:30.209
- gets involved.But, Peter didn't know this.
- 00:16:30.209 --> 00:16:31.710
- But, Peter didn't know this.And so, he was sitting
- 00:16:31.710 --> 00:16:34.179
- And so, he was sittingaround the table, and he says,
- 00:16:34.179 --> 00:16:37.016
- around the table, and he says,"Even if all fall away,
- 00:16:37.016 --> 00:16:41.387
- "Even if all fall away,I will not."
- 00:16:41.387 --> 00:16:45.824
- I will not."I will not.
- 00:16:45.824 --> 00:16:46.525
- I will not.I will not.
- 00:16:46.525 --> 00:16:48.160
- I will not.Jesus said, "Before the rooster
- 00:16:48.160 --> 00:16:48.894
- Jesus said, "Before the roostereven gets his second crow
- 00:16:48.894 --> 00:16:49.728
- even gets his second crowout of his mouth,
- 00:16:49.728 --> 00:16:50.662
- out of his mouth,you're going to be telling
- 00:16:50.662 --> 00:16:53.599
- you're going to be tellingpeople you don't even know me."
- 00:16:53.599 --> 00:16:54.133
- people you don't even know me."And that's exactly
- 00:16:54.133 --> 00:16:56.301
- And that's exactlywhat happened.
- 00:16:56.301 --> 00:16:57.503
- what happened.And Jesus warned Peter
- 00:16:57.503 --> 00:16:58.003
- And Jesus warned Peterof the attack,
- 00:16:58.003 --> 00:16:59.204
- of the attack,and sometimes we don't listen
- 00:16:59.204 --> 00:16:59.738
- and sometimes we don't listenand we don't hear,
- 00:16:59.738 --> 00:17:00.506
- and we don't hear,so we're surprised
- 00:17:00.506 --> 00:17:01.507
- so we're surprisedwhen it comes, and we act like
- 00:17:01.507 --> 00:17:03.175
- when it comes, and we act likeit's an ambush
- 00:17:03.175 --> 00:17:07.713
- it's an ambushwhen it's really normal.
- 00:17:07.713 --> 00:17:11.383
- when it's really normal.It's normal to be attacked.
- 00:17:11.383 --> 00:17:12.184
- It's normal to be attacked.It's normal.
- 00:17:12.184 --> 00:17:14.386
- It's normal.Jesus told Peter,
- 00:17:14.386 --> 00:17:17.089
- Jesus told Peter,"Satan has asked for all of you,
- 00:17:17.089 --> 00:17:17.756
- "Satan has asked for all of you,and specifically,
- 00:17:17.756 --> 00:17:19.258
- and specifically,he's asked for you,
- 00:17:19.258 --> 00:17:21.226
- he's asked for you,to sift you as wheat,
- 00:17:21.226 --> 00:17:22.227
- to sift you as wheat,to sort out what's real
- 00:17:22.227 --> 00:17:24.530
- to sort out what's realfrom what's not real.
- 00:17:24.530 --> 00:17:26.732
- from what's not real.But I prayed for you, Peter.
- 00:17:26.732 --> 00:17:31.136
- But I prayed for you, Peter.I prayed for you, Peter.
- 00:17:31.136 --> 00:17:33.739
- I prayed for you, Peter.You're going to fail, Peter,
- 00:17:33.739 --> 00:17:36.942
- You're going to fail, Peter,but I'm not.
- 00:17:36.942 --> 00:17:40.145
- but I'm not.You are shaky at best, Peter,
- 00:17:40.145 --> 00:17:42.448
- You are shaky at best, Peter,but I am a solid rock
- 00:17:42.448 --> 00:17:45.818
- but I am a solid rockat the bottom of your failure.
- 00:17:45.818 --> 00:17:49.154
- at the bottom of your failure.I pray for you, Peter."
- 00:17:49.154 --> 00:17:51.023
- I pray for you, Peter."And now Peter writes,
- 00:17:51.023 --> 00:17:52.658
- And now Peter writes,decades later,
- 00:17:52.658 --> 00:17:55.027
- decades later,to a church under attack.
- 00:17:55.027 --> 00:17:55.794
- to a church under attack."Humble yourself under
- 00:17:55.794 --> 00:17:56.795
- "Humble yourself underthe mighty hand of God,
- 00:17:56.795 --> 00:17:59.398
- the mighty hand of God,for your enemy, the devil."
- 00:17:59.398 --> 00:17:59.898
- for your enemy, the devil."What's he like?
- 00:17:59.898 --> 00:18:02.901
- What's he like?He's like a roaring lion.
- 00:18:02.901 --> 00:18:03.735
- He's like a roaring lion.He's looking for somebody
- 00:18:03.735 --> 00:18:05.771
- He's looking for somebodyto devour.
- 00:18:05.771 --> 00:18:06.738
- to devour.He's looking for somebody
- 00:18:06.738 --> 00:18:07.940
- He's looking for somebodywho he can shred to pieces
- 00:18:07.940 --> 00:18:11.276
- who he can shred to pieceswith doubt, and fear,
- 00:18:11.276 --> 00:18:12.044
- with doubt, and fear,and selfishness.
- 00:18:12.044 --> 00:18:12.744
- and selfishness.He's looking for somebody
- 00:18:12.744 --> 00:18:14.113
- He's looking for somebodythat he can get to walk away,
- 00:18:14.113 --> 00:18:16.782
- that he can get to walk away,and as a pastor,
- 00:18:16.782 --> 00:18:17.883
- and as a pastor,I'm just sick of having to make
- 00:18:17.883 --> 00:18:18.951
- I'm just sick of having to makephone calls and visits
- 00:18:18.951 --> 00:18:20.419
- phone calls and visitswith people every week
- 00:18:20.419 --> 00:18:21.587
- with people every weekwho are being devoured
- 00:18:21.587 --> 00:18:24.923
- who are being devouredby the enemy.
- 00:18:24.923 --> 00:18:25.624
- by the enemy.So, Peter says this
- 00:18:25.624 --> 00:18:29.394
- So, Peter says thisis a time for resistance.
- 00:18:29.394 --> 00:18:30.129
- is a time for resistance.This is not a time
- 00:18:30.129 --> 00:18:31.296
- This is not a timefor you to run.
- 00:18:31.296 --> 00:18:32.131
- for you to run.This is a time for you
- 00:18:32.131 --> 00:18:32.831
- This is a time for youto resist.
- 00:18:32.831 --> 00:18:34.933
- to resist.Yeah, but he's a lion!
- 00:18:34.933 --> 00:18:37.236
- Yeah, but he's a lion!Okay, he is a lion,
- 00:18:37.236 --> 00:18:37.936
- Okay, he is a lion,and he might be
- 00:18:37.936 --> 00:18:39.905
- and he might belicking his lips,
- 00:18:39.905 --> 00:18:42.708
- licking his lips,and his fangs might be sharp,
- 00:18:42.708 --> 00:18:43.709
- and his fangs might be sharp,and he might have you
- 00:18:43.709 --> 00:18:45.277
- and he might have youin his sight,
- 00:18:45.277 --> 00:18:46.545
- in his sight,and you might have failed,
- 00:18:46.545 --> 00:18:47.546
- and you might have failed,and you might have done it,
- 00:18:47.546 --> 00:18:49.848
- and you might have done it,and you might be going down!

- The destination is determinedby who or what is at the wheel.
- 00:23:18.683 --> 00:23:19.351

- If you're steeringby your feelings,
- 00:23:20.585 --> 00:23:22.687

- 00:23:29.361 --> 00:23:30.228
- the gradual drift.Because, the world's gets us
- 00:23:30.228 --> 00:23:31.963
- Because, the world's gets uswalking in its ways;
- 00:23:31.963 --> 00:23:35.567
- walking in its ways;what we see, what we feel,
- 00:23:35.567 --> 00:23:37.402
- what we see, what we feel,what we think.
- 00:23:37.402 --> 00:23:38.970

- 00:23:41.807 --> 00:23:43.608
